Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius has defended manager Jurgen Klopp's rotations.
Much has been made about Klopp's rotation policy with another six changes for the dour draw with West Brom.
However, Karius doesn't believe that chopping and changing is to blame for the Reds' recent wobble.
“I think if you look at the starting XI that is pretty much a starting XI which has played together before," he said.
“It is not as if there are six new young players coming in – we are all professionals and have played a bunch of games so there is no excuse.
“The manager picks the strongest team and the fittest one and I think it was a very strong team.
“We have dropped points but we still believe in our ability. We did when we played well and we do when we drop points.
“It is a long season and there are so many games to play and so many points to get so I feel other teams will drop points too.
“We saw it with Tottenham recently and the only team flying completely right now is Man City.
"I am still confident in us. We just have to focus on the next one and get the points there."
